Oem wheel interchangeability
Hi Guys,
Quick question (I think the answer is yes), but my F150 came stock with these rims (17x7.5) with 265x70xR17 tires:

Can I put on these rims (20x8.5) with 275x55xR20 without any modification?

Use case is snow tires.

Your speedometer might be off by a little bit, there are calculators online that will tell you by how much.
I went from stock 18s to stock 20s and my speedo was off by about 3mph at 60mph if I remember correctly.

You can use Forscan to adjust for any variations in tire diameter in any of the factory stock wheel sizes.
I bought a really nice set of 18” sport wheels off the marketplace here for winter treads and chose my tire size to keep the same outside tire diameter to avoid adjusting via Forscan. But it’s not too hard to do.

Those two wheel/tire combination sizes are considered interchangeable by Ford, with no adjustment needed to correct your speedometer. Overall diameter, there's about a 8mm difference between the two. This means that when your speedo reads 60 mph, you'll actually be going 60.6 mph. This is within the error percentage allowance.
